    I'm going on holiday for 2 weeks and already filled in the form needed to continue getting JB. But do I get the money for those 2 weeks before going away or after I'm back? Someone I know got the money before they left [that was last year], but at the same time it says on SW website that you get the money when you come back, though the information there was last updated in 2012. How is it now then?

    A person may receive JB for 2 weeks holidays in any calendar year. These holidays may be taken abroad.
    S/he is required to inform the Intreo Centre/ Local/Branch Office 2 weeks in advance of his/her departure and to complete the form UP 30. All holiday payments should be made retrospectively, upon confirmation of the position when the person signs on again (on the next normal signing day after his/her return). If a person goes on holiday for longer than 2 weeks, s/he may be paid in respect of the first two weeks, but should be disqualified for any period abroad in excess of this.
